Great work! I love 1920 x 1080 but I don't love the wrecked menu screens you get with other mods! Very glad someone finally decided to do this. I am working on a WWI mod for SH3 and I would like permission to incorporate this into my work. You will receive all credit.

No need to worry about that... this work incorporates bits of many 'sh3 Mod pioneers' that have modded before me.. Makman, Hitman.. etc.

A simple credit to all the previous modders would be OK, .. I think (if that's OK with them)
:03:

So you are also making it for SH3? Looks like i'll have double the fun then.

Beautiful and much needed, GOOD WORK :rock:

Royalty free sub pics
 
I was thinking of placing historical 'royalty free' sub pics as backgrounds to the menu items.

Does any know of, or have, any pics that i can use - I edit the pics and place your AKA (or real name if you like) on the pic, as credit notification.

Thanks for any help
:up:

vanjast 05-25-14 02:49 PM

Nearly finished !!.. :O:
Found an interesting situation at Bergen while testing..

vanjast 05-25-14 05:33 PM

The menu flow..
Edited.. running out of image space !

Paulebaer1979 05-26-14 07:38 AM

Very nice job. I have an idea for the nav map:
https://www.mediafire.com/convkey/c8...m0t09rmq4g.jpg
You could use the free space for some info charts. I just copied the distance charts from gwx inside.
Same thing with the view of the barraks: just show some infos about the ranks, batches and so on.
Or at the view from the sub in port. There you could show info about the different subs.
Depending for the megamod you build the gui for, you can show nearly every interesting info around the screens, when the size of them is hard coded by sh3.

Hi, vanjast!
For triangle ruler (Dreieck.tga), change MatFlags=0x9 to be =0x29. Will be with more quality of the image:

Eagerly awaiting this! I hope you manage to expand as many of the screens as possible to the full resolution.

vanjast 05-29-14 03:19 AM

Update at post 1 on menu items.

I'm finished but would like to go through this lot once again.. and put everything in order..
:arrgh!:

Question: How does one delete one's user file attachments - I'm redlining it at the moment :-)

Myxale 05-29-14 09:46 AM

What a nice surprise.

Didn't expect a 1080 Wide-screen anytime soon.
Kudos Maestro.

This will make playing SH3 in my new big screen more fun.

:salute:

Hawk U-375 05-29-14 10:40 AM

Looking VERY foward to this!:rock:

Tigershark624 05-29-14 04:58 PM

Will this be compatible with any form of MaGUI? I'm currently using the Widescreen MaGUI 3.4-SA version but I'd like to try this if I can keep Makman's excellent GUI.

vanjast 05-30-14 02:38 AM

I've based this on Hitman's GUI (with a bit of 'artistic license'), sitting on top of NYGM 3.6D

Most likely not though :oops:
All this will have to be tested and probably adapted by each major mod's creator.

This is not as bad as it looks..:D, as the actual in game 3D screens are controlled by the D3D9.dll which is common to all wide-screen games.
Here each Mod creator (or yourself) would need to scale screens and change positions of items - this can be tedious, but no brain surgery required.

The menu items should be OK (hopefully), as they're separate items from in game 'instruments'.

What I have done, is made comments 'ad nauseam' in the menu_1024_768.ini file, so anyone can quickly see, where and what changes have been made - this will help in adapting to other personal modifications.. etc
